Seven Year Old Endgame Actress Says Fans Are Bullying Her
Description
There's no type of fame quite like the one actors are thrust into after starring in a Marvel movie. With international attention can also come backlash of equal intensity, and sadly, 7-year-old Avengers: Endgame actress Lexi Rabe is currently facing the negative effects of being part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
People have reportedly begun harassing Rabe, who plays Morgan Stark, the adorable daughter of Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark and Gwyneth Paltrow's Pepper Potts in Avengers: Endgame. Though no specific incidents of bullying have been explicitly mentioned, it seems that the harassers became upset over Rabe's behavior when they saw her in public, finding fault with her acting, quote, "silly" and evidently declining to take photos with them.
Rabe and her mother, Jessica, addressed the unfortunate situation in a video uploaded to Rabe's Instagram account. Jessica Rabe wrote in the caption that, quote, "yet again Lexi's getting bullied," and asked everyone to please withhold their opinions about her daughter, so that she can, quote, "grow up in the free world."
She also noted that, contrary to what some may believe, Lexi is a well-behaved child, and if she wasn't, Marvel probably wouldn't have hired her for Avengers: Endgame. Rabe's mother then requested that people refrain from passing judgements or making harsh remarks until they have children of their own, and asked that they realize the Rabe family is, quote, "not perfect" and isn't "claiming to be."
She ended the caption with a heartwarming reminder that, quote, "My children love me and respect me even if they act out sometimes. Thank you! Jessica!" Keep watching the video for more information about how the seven year old Endgame actress says fans are bullying her.
